About this bond

What it is and who needs it.

What the LP-gas bond actually covers

Kansas taxes liquefied petroleum gas (propane) used as a motor fuel under the LP-gas motor fuel tax law, K.S.A. 79-3490 et seq. A business that places LP-gas into the fuel supply tank of a motor vehicle — or runs its own fleet on propane — needs an LP-gas user-dealer license from the Department of Revenue and must post a bond to back the tax.

The bond is a tax guarantee: it stands behind the LP-gas motor fuel tax the user-dealer reports and remits. The Department generally sets the amount at about three months of estimated tax liability, with a statutory minimum of $1,000, so it scales with how much taxable propane you move.

Not every propane business needs it — if all the LP-gas you sell is for home heating or agricultural use, none goes into a vehicle's fuel tank, and none of your delivery vehicles run on propane, the user-dealer license generally is not required. When it is, pricing starts from $100 and the application collects no credit information; if the surety pays the state you repay the surety.
